| 1 | \(\tan(75^\circ) = \frac{v_y}{v_x}\) | To find the angle of the velocity vector, we use the relationship between the vertical and horizontal components. Here, \(v_y\) is the vertical speed, and \(v_x = 2.7 \, \text{m/s}\) is the horizontal speed, and we are given the angle is \(75^\circ\). |
| 2 | \( \tan(75^\circ) = \frac{v_y}{2.7}\) | Substitute the given horizontal speed \(v_x = 2.7 \, \text{m/s}\) into the equation. |
| 3 | \(v_y = 2.7 \tan(75^\circ)\) | Solve for the vertical speed \(v_y\). |
| 4 | \(\tan(75^\circ) \approx 3.73\) | Use a calculator to find the value of \(\tan(75^\circ)\). |
| 5 | \(v_y = 2.7 \times 3.73\) | Substitute the known value of \(\tan(75^\circ)\). |
| 6 | \(v_y \approx 10.07 \, \text{m/s}\) | Multiply to find the vertical speed \(v_y\). |
| 7 | \(v_y = v_i + at\) | Use the kinematic equation to solve for the time \(t\). Initial vertical velocity \(v_i = 0 \), acceleration \(a = g\) (where \(g = 9.8 \, \text{m/s}^2\)), and final vertical velocity \(v_y \approx 10.07 \, \text{m/s}\). |
| 8 | \(10.07 = 0 + 9.8 t\) | Substitute the known values into the kinematic equation. |
| 9 | \(t = \frac{10.07}{9.8}\) | Isolate the time \(t\). |
| 10 | \(t \approx 1.03 \, \text{s}\) | Solve for \(t\). |
| 11 | \Delta x = v_i t + \frac{1}{2} a t^2\) | Use the vertical displacement formula to find \(\Delta x\). Here, \(v_i = 0\), \(a = g\), and we need to find \(\Delta x\) for the time \(t\). |
| 12 | \( \Delta x = 0 + \frac{1}{2} (9.8)(1.03)^2\) | Plug in the values for \(a\) and \(t\). |
| 13 | \(\Delta x \approx \frac{1}{2} (9.8)(1.0609)\) | Simplify inside the parentheses. |
| 14 | \(\Delta x \approx 5.20 \, \text{m}\) | Calculate the final displacement. |
| 15 | \boxed{\Delta x \approx 5.20 \, \text{m}}\) | Final vertical distance below the edge where the velocity vector points downward at a \( 75^\circ \) angle. |
Just ask: "Help me solve this problem."
A cannon fires projectiles on a flat range at a fixed speed but with variable angle. The maximum range of the cannon is L. What is the range of the cannon when it fires at an angle of 30° above the horizontal? Ignore air resistance.
A javelin thrower standing at rest holds the center of the javelin behind her head, then accelerates it through a distance of \( 70 \, \text{cm} \) as she throws. She releases the \( 600 \, \text{g} \) javelin \( 2.0 \, \text{m} \) above the ground traveling at an angle of \( 30^\circ \) above the horizontal. In this throw, the javelin hits the ground \( 54 \, \text{m} \) away. Find the following:
One end of a spring is attached to a solid wall while the other end just reaches to the edge of a horizontal, frictionless tabletop, which is a distance [katex] h [/katex] above the floor. A block of mass M is placed against the end of the spring and pushed toward the wall until the spring has been compressed a distance [katex] x [/katex]. The block is released and strikes the floor a horizontal distance [katex] D [/katex] from the edge of the table. Air resistance is negligible.
Derive an expressions for the following quantities only in terms of [katex] M, x, D, h, [/katex] and any constants.
A rocket is fired at a speed of 75.0 m/s from ground level, at an angle of 60.0° above the horizontal. The rocket is fired toward an 11.0-m-high wall, which is located 27.0 m away. The rocket attains its launch speed in a negligibly short period of time, after which its engines shut down and the rocket coasts. By how much does the rocket clear the top of the wall?
A diver springs upward from a diving board. At the instant she contacts the water, her speed is \( 8.90 \, \text{m/s} \), and her body is extended at an angle of \( 75.0^\circ \) with respect to the horizontal surface of the water. At this instant, her vertical displacement is \( -3.00 \, \text{m} \), where downward is the negative direction. Determine her initial velocity, both magnitude and direction.

General Metric Conversion Chart
Example of using unit analysis: Convert 5 kilometers to millimeters.
Start with the given measurement: [katex]\text{5 km}[/katex]
Use the conversion factors for kilometers to meters and meters to millimeters: [katex]\text{5 km} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{m}}{1 \, \text{km}} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{mm}}{1 \, \text{m}}[/katex]
Perform the multiplication: [katex]\text{5 km} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{m}}{1 \, \text{km}} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{mm}}{1 \, \text{m}} = 5 \times 10^3 \times 10^3 \, \text{mm}[/katex]
Simplify to get the final answer: [katex]\boxed{5 \times 10^6 \, \text{mm}}[/katex]
